I know I was moving pretty fast in that video. Here are some pictures of some of those items, and a brief explanation on how I made them. Let’s start with one of the most famous Halloween characters… Frankenstein.

My sister-in-law came with me to Value Village. I asked her to join me because she is a woman of vision. I walked by the pillows. She walked behind me. I walked right past this green-fringed pillow. She stopped, picked it the pillow I ignored, and was all, “JENNY. FRANKENSTEIN?!”

To go from pillow to Frankenstein, I simply spray painted the fringe (the spray painting was simple, the taping-off was NOT). Then I played around with some of the yarn I found at Value Village and hot glued Frankenstein’s face on.

It’s OK. Frankenstein can handle hot glue on his face.

I opted out of the bolts on the side of the head because… I can. I think a piece of the success behind crafting is in the details… but it is also in letting some things go. Like bolts on a pillow.

Now… brass and hurricane lamps are not necessarily something I stop for.

However, before my trip to Value Village I poked around on Pinterest and saw a fun idea using hurricane lamps. With a few coats of black spray paint and of course a coat of glitter paint, I was able to create a fun way to display a pumpkin.

To get the dots on that pumpkin I used craft paint and a circle sponge. BAM.

Speaking of Pinterest ideas… I teamed up with Value Village for the Monster Mash Pin to Win contest. They asked folks to come up with Halloween-inspired Pinterest board for a chance to win a $150 gift card to use at Value Village. That contest is all wrapped up and a winner has been chosen!

OK…. before I wrap up this series, I have one more cute creation to show you. The credit for this idea also goes to my sister-in-law. She saw potential in a rather ugly stool. A couple of coats black of paint on that stool and a painted pumpkin and you go from ugly stool and standard pumpkin to curious pumpkin with legs! Since a spider has 8 legs, maybe Miss Suspicious Pumpkin isn’t a spider, but maybe she is… Maybe she’s looking for her other 4 legs?

The thing about decorating with thrifted finds… you get to tap into your creativity. If you don’t feel you are creative, I bet you don’t give yourself enough credit.

There are several measures of the quality of t-shirt
printing. Now individuals and business owners can get the t-shirt printed as per their or their corporate clients
needs and budget limits. Each order has to be treated individually, it
is however important to also note that the minimum time that many t shirt printing.
